    Wow, y’all are overcomplicating this.

    Gnome has native VNC support. On your Linux machine go to Sharing, enable Remote Desktop, set a username and password.

    On your Mac, use any VNC client you like, they’re all over the App Store, and connect by IP address to your Linux machine with the username and password from settings.

    Although you can install more software, you don’t have to.

    I’m sorry, and I know everyone recommends it, but RustDesk is not fully baked. Every time I have tried it, I consistently have issues with the Mac client.

    I’m also looking for a good, reliable, and fast Remote Desktop solution between my Mac and my Linux rig. It used to be TeamViewer, then they got to be greedy. Then it was Chrome Remote Desktop, but it doesn’t work well on Arch (for me, anyway) and I’ve de-Googled myself as much as I’m able. Then I tried RustDesk and I had nothing but issues.

    I may go back to NoMachine. It wasn’t perfect, but it at least worked most of the time.
